I don’t often do this, but a colleague of mine sent me a short video from the last TED Conference that I wanted to share with you. It’s on leadership, and it’s by a brilliant guy named Derek Sivers. It’s short (3 min), funny, and makes some very solid points.

We don’t often associate Leadership with the budget & planning process, but an effective planning process requires leadership. And more to the point, making real and lasting change requires even stronger leadership.
